git

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

Doing a 'git clone' of the main GHC repository is pretty slow (ten minutes plus), presumably because it fetches everything.  sync-all takes another twenty minutes

Would it be faster using git's own protocol rather than http?  If so, is it just a question of changing the 'clone' command, or is there more to do than that?
